Shelling, North Captiva Sand Bar, April 4, Fort Myers, Sanibel & Captiva Fishing Report & Guide Service.

Here’s a shelling photo from a sand bar off North Captiva because … fishing was horrible today!

As good as the tarpon fishing was yesterday, it was equally bad today.  It was the worst.

We couldn’t catch a thing.  A cold front had moved in and the wind was blowing hard out of the northeast.  We couldn’t catch a cold.  Nothing was happening.

Let’s hope things change tomorrow!

Please call 239-314-9150 or email captjoefred@gmail to book a charter.

It is well worth the half hour drive from Fort Myers; we’ll catch fish and the scenery is beautiful.  Let’s go on a Sanibel & Captiva fishing charter – or let’s go on a North Captiva or Cayo Costa Island shelling guide trip.  Just give me a call and we’ll lineup a charter!

Bull & Hammerhead Sharks Fight Over Tarpon, May 10, Sanibel, Captiva & Fort Myers Fishing Charter & Sanibel, Captiva Fort Myers Fishing Report.

We got this tarpon close to the boat yesterday, but we didn’t see the bull & hammerhead sharks coming.

As you can see in the video, as the tarpon gets close to the boat, one shark comes in and attacks it and then a number (one bull and one hammerhead?) fight over the remains of the tarpon.

It is frustrating, but it happens.
